After Xiao Lingling experienced such an incident, Lin Ran dared not let her stay on the mountain anymore. He quickly carried his little sister on his back and walked down the mountain.
On the way, he also called his second brother and Lin Wu, who were confused about what was going on, and Qin Yu followed them as usual.
When Qiaomei saw that they were about to go down the mountain, she slowly stood up and wiped the tears from her face.
"Brother, let's go back too."
Qiaomei tried to pull Chen Shuxu back, but after two steps she couldn't pull him anymore.
She looked up with some confusion, "Brother?"
Chen Shuxu's face didn't look very good, and there was some confusion in his eyes when he looked at Qiaomei.
Qiaomei's heart skipped a beat when she saw his look. "Brother? Qiaomei, Qiaomei is just...Qiaomei is just afraid that brother is in danger!"
She gritted her teeth and continued to argue, but Chen Shuxu's expression didn't change at all.
"Qiaomei, I think you should know that if it weren't for the Lin family's help, we wouldn't have gotten here at all, and we might even be dead.
Little Bell is in danger in front of us, how can we stand by and watch?
You're scared even though you're so far away, let alone Little Bell? You shouldn't have stopped your brother."
Chen Shuxu really felt a little uncomfortable. He received great kindness from the Lin family, but was unable to contribute at the critical moment. He felt extremely guilty.
Especially when he saw Xiao Lingling crying loudly out of fear, he felt even more ashamed.
Chen Shuxu had never said anything harsh to Qiaomei before, but this time, Qiaomei was really sad and burst into tears.
"Brother! You are my brother, shouldn't you protect me and care about me?
But ever since you started walking with them, you have always cared about and protected Little Bell!
She already has so many brothers, why does she want to snatch mine? You are my only brother.
I don’t want you to save people, I don’t want you to die, isn’t that right?
If something really happened to you, I would be the only one left. How would I live? Didn’t your brother think about Qiaomei?
If I had known this would happen, I would have never let the Lin family rescue me. I would rather die with my grandma and brother than live alone."
Qiaomei cried so hard that her face turned red because she cried so hard.
Chen Shuxu couldn't help but be moved when he heard her words.
That’s right, he ignored Qiaomei’s feelings.
They are siblings and depend on each other for survival. Qiaomei is only four or five years old, so it is normal for her to be afraid.
Seeing her crying so sadly, Chen Shuxu wiped away her tears with heartache.
"Okay, okay, don't cry. I was just thinking too simply. I will definitely pay more attention to Qiaomei in the future, okay?"
Only then did Qiaomei throw herself into his arms, crying and apologizing.
In the end, the incident ended with her crying...
Little Bell was crying very hard at first, but when she was almost at the bottom of the mountain, she stopped.
"Second brother and third brother, when we get back later, you must not tell anyone about what happened on the mountain today.
It's so embarrassing.
And if I tell her, my grandma will definitely not let me go up the mountain again.
So, you can’t say anything, understand! And little brother, you can’t say anything either! "
Lin Hao shook his head. "It's no use if we don't say anything. Your eyes are so red, you can tell you've been crying!"
Little Bell waved her hands and said, "It's okay. I'll tell grandma that I was crying because I couldn't find the fruit. I'm sure grandma will believe me."
Brothers: ...I don’t believe you!
However, Xiao Lingling had just been frightened, and everyone didn't want her to be sad anymore, so they agreed.
After returning, Xiao Lingdang was indeed caught by Zhao and questioned for a long time, but with her cute and coquettish behavior, she was able to get away with it in the end.
Moreover, Jin Bei was very capable and actually shot two pheasants, which made up for Xiao Lingling's hurt heart.
However, after what happened at noon, the brothers' attitudes towards Chen Shuxu and Qiaomei changed significantly.
Chen Shuxu accepted it silently, but Qiaomei didn't care at all.
Anyway, she is about to arrive at her second uncle's house, and she won't have to worry about Xiao Lingling snatching her brother from her anymore. She is so happy that she can't contain herself.
At night, everyone still slept outdoors, but they were now very experienced and setting up camp was just a matter of minutes.
I happened to have saved a pheasant from lunch, so I could stew a big pot of it in the evening.
When Xiao Lingdang saw Chen Shuxu chopping wood and Qiaomei was there, she ran over with the prescription written by her master.
"Brother Shuxu, Sister Qiaomei, here, I'm here to bring you something."
When Chen Shuxu saw Xiao Lingling coming over, he quickly put away his axe and asked, "Huh? What is that?"
Xiao Lingling waved the paper in her hand and said, "This is it, Brother Shuxu, please keep it. This is the prescription I asked my master to write for Sister Qiaomei.
Sister Qiaomei has heart disease, so she becomes breathless after strenuous activity.
It's a bit difficult to cure this completely. After you stabilize, buy this prescription and drink it four times a month. Add some nutrition and it will gradually become less serious.
You will find your family tomorrow, so I was afraid you would forget it, so I brought it to you now."
Chen Shuxu took a look at the words on the paper and felt extremely grateful, but also more guilty.
"Xiao Lingling, thank you, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, Qiaomei and I would have been gone long ago and wouldn't have been able to get here at all."
Qiaomei felt somewhat guilty at this moment, and her eyes became a little red.
"Little Bell Sister, it wasn't that I didn't want my brother to save you last time, it was just too dangerous.
My brother is the only one I have left, and I'm really worried that something might happen to him. I'm sorry."
Xiao Lingling smiled and didn't care at all, "It's okay, I'm fine now.
You will find your family tomorrow, that's good news, don't cry."
The more she said this, the more guilty Qiaomei felt.
Lin Ran saw his sister talking to the two siblings from a distance, and felt a little depressed. "Little sister, come quickly, mother is calling you!"
Xiao Lingdang originally wanted to comfort them, but when she heard someone shouting, she could only pat Qiaomei on the shoulder.
"Don't cry, sister Qiaomei. Everything will be fine. I'm leaving first."
Seeing Xiao Lingdang running away, Qiaomei turned her head and looked at Chen Shuxu, "Brother, am I really wrong?"
Chen Shuxu sighed and rubbed her head.
"It's okay, it's all in the past. We probably won't have any contact in the future. Just be grateful to them in your heart."
Qiaomei nodded without saying anything.
The next day, the Lin family got up early. They had already discussed it the night before and decided to send Chen Shuxu and Qiaomei to see their second uncle this morning.
Then the two families planned to stroll around Xianliang County, buy some things and then continue their journey.
